Sounds like an environment problem. Not outside, inside! A good cleaning a couple times a week for awhile will help. Lysol doorknobs, all knobs, really, and wash those pillowcases often, even if you don't change the sheets that often. Change the filters in your heater/ac at least once a month until your home is clean of unseen bacteria again. Have the carpets cleaned. They harbor the most damaging stuff, especially if you have pets, and even if you vacuum often. They need to be cleaned. Good luck and good health!

stay away from each other so germs wont regenerate

Open the doors to your house and refreshen the air supply...
then get some sun...or go to a spa for tanning sessions...that's the best way to cure the winter illnesses you describe.

umm......i suggest you go to a docter,or take tylonel or just sleep and relax.well.thats kinda hard for you because you have to take care of your kids.if you havent already gone to a docter and got a prescription i suggest you do that.

Not sure where you live, but my first thought was either dust or mold. You need to be sure your son's asthma is being treated correctly. It's a very serious condition. I don't know how old your kids are or how many, but can you take a week off to just "be". Sleep late. Watch movies. Do a minimum of housework. I'm sorry you all feel like such crap. Do you have a husband or partner or friend who can pitch in for a bit so you can rest? Sounds like you really need to slow down. Get yourselves to a doctor to rule out anything that might need meds and then cut yourself off from the world. Drink, drink, drink! (water, that is!)

sounds like chronic infectious bronchitis. Stay home & drink hot chicken soup. Beware high body temp=pneumonia

I am not sure where you live,, however get out side,, get fresh air. What happens is, your kids are off at school which germs are everywhere, then they come home. During the break they are cooped up in the house playing with toys and hanging around with each other. GET OUTSIDE,, you need the air. also go down to your local drug store and by that stuff called "Airborne" or even the cheap verson. I use it at work, when people are sick, it works.

do you remember growing up and being sick all of the time? of course not, you were outside all the time. Kids these days stay inside watching TV and playing games,, they are not active enough so they get sick, and they spread it back and forth to each other and the family.

also use lysol spray and wash your hands and faces, especially before eating. Buy some multi-vitamins for you and some for the kids, they help

Sounds like maybe there is a bacteria just really taking advantage of your close quarters. You sound as though you are getting different symptoms. You could try a shot of gamma globin from your doctor to help build up you immunity systems. Good luck!
